WATERBURY, Conn., Nov. 8, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Therap's
Scheduling with Electronic Visit Verification, designed to meet
emerging federal requirements, is now available on Android and iOS
devices. With the enactment of the 21st Century CURES Act mandating
Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) for documenting personal care
and home health care services, providers need a solution to fulfill
EVV compliance requirements. New requirements include
authenticating type of service, individual service recipient, date
and location of service delivery, the service provider, and begin
and end time of service. Non-compliance penalties include reduced
Federal Medical Assistance Percentage (FMAP).
Therap's comprehensive Electronic Visit Verification solution
helps facilitate the service delivery authentication process.
Therap's EVV tools assist providers in complying with mandate by
collecting data at the point of service by the individual directly
providing services. Therap's EVV combines with scheduling
features to designate staff schedules, so staff see location
assignments and utilize map features to navigate to service
locations. Equipped with geolocation, date and timestamp features,
staff can easily check in/out while working remotely from their
handheld devices.
The EVV functionality also features the ability to track
remaining service authorization units, limiting cost overages. The
app verifies the individual receiving services and attaches
authorized services which may be linked to direct billing claims
specific to that individual.
Therap's EVV tool employs platform and device flexibility for
added ease of use via Android and iOS mobile applications and
web-based interfaces. Therap's platform flexibility means providers
have greater flexibility when factoring considerations for hardware
and not limitations to a specific device. Therap's
cost-effective mobile and web-based solution allows organizations
the versatility to choose a hardware solution that fits their
fiscal plans with a system compliant with federal requirements.
